Frustration of Shame (eBook, ePUB)

In Defense of America's Teachers

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

For decades, teachers, though underpaid, were among the most respected, esteemed professionals in the United States. But things have changed. As schools fail to meet the needs of a growing, diverse population, teachers have taken the hit. Popular movies have sensationalized the power and potential of those in the teaching profession, their hyperbole bordering on the absurd. Bruce Jay Gevirtzman hands you the truth about conditions in America's schools. His defense of teachers may be shocking, but could awaken us to solutions that really work.
